Apparently they're reputable, so if you have got an ms for children give it a go?

#RevPit
Over on X and Bluesky, #Revpit is taking place today. It's where you pitch your novel/s and if an agent 'likes' them, they're inviting you to query them. I've only ever had a like from one agent, but they're fun to do and I'm getting the hang of Canva now for the mood board things.

Commended Entries: First Announcement
Many, many entries this cycle, well beyond what we had anticipated, and the standard of the writing has made winnowing the longlist unusually difficult. Thank you to everyone who trusted us with their opening pages. The quality was so high that the commended list is longer than in previous cycles. We are releasing the names in no particular order, over the coming days, and a shortlist will be drawn from this group. Today, in no particular order, we are announcing: - Lies on Sale by Gabby Martini - The Impossibility of Eden by Harry Wilson - Beach Dog by Tom McDonough - The Breaking Point by Fiona Harriet - The Taste of Iron by Ramona Slusarczyk - Askar and the Witch by Nina van der Beek - The City of a Thousand Eyes by Angelique Talbot - The Melusine Murders by Jesse Weiner Congratulations to all of them. Many further entries, equally commended, will be announced over the coming days. If your name is not yet here, please don't read into its absence. Names are being released in the order we can write the posts, which has nothing to do with preference, and every remaining commendation carries the same weight as those above.

Congratulations to everyone! Those sound like great titles, too.
Refresh… refresh… refresh…
It’s not even 9am yet, & I’ve already checked in about 5 times. Surely I am not alone 😅🙈

Yep, I'm definitely here, although I've got to take my husband to the doctors in a bit to have his (bandsaw 🙄) wound dressed, so keep my place warm.

@Lorna Riley luckily he didn't chop through his finger, but hit the bone. I've had no time or energy to write in the last two weeks, as he's a bit incapacitated!
